Hi,

Thanks Petr for your reply. By incorrect I meant instead of the conventional 
main.obj, we get main.cpp.obj.
I understood what you are saying. We have found a solution for this in our 
cmake code.
We have explicitly set the /Fo compiler flag for main.cpp. With that it creates 
main.obj for main.cpp and also main.res for main.rc

Thanks & Regards

Subject: Re: [CMake] Incorrect object file name on cmake compilation

Hi Ravi.

In what sense is the name "incorrect?" There is no correct/incorrect way to 
name object files in relation to the source file name; it can be arbitrary, as 
long as it's correctly passed on to the linker. I believe CMake chooses to 
append ".obj" to the whole file name if there is more than one file with the 
same base name. But why should this be a problem?

Hi,

We are working on a cmake project.

The issue is that the cmake build is successful but after the execution of 
cmake build step, the name of the object file is incorrect. On compilation of 
the source file main.cpp, the name of the object file is coming incorrectly as 
main.cpp.obj instead of main.obj

To simulate the problem, please find attached herewith a zip file that contains
CMakeLists.txt
main.cpp
main.rc
The source list contains “main.cpp” and the resource file “main.rc”

Please note the following:

1.       This problem occurs only when the resource file main.rc is present in 
the list.

2.       This problem does not occur when the resource file main.rc is excluded 
from the list OR if the resource file has a name other than main.rc

Thanks & Regards
